CIC now uses a one legged polar bear to make all deliveries.

One user who applied 3 weeks before me went "In process" in March. I haven't moved. Trying not to be depressed, but it sucks! The strike looming sucks too.

Glad to know things are better around here!!

I'm feeling a little homesick :-[ Sometimes I feel like I'm just a visitor again. I miss my shopping in a small city and my daily routine. I've been busy these days to even remember all day until today when I get to sleep in a little. Argh I just need to stay busy.
Ms boom I hope you get that passport soon!!!

Another round of pneumonia????? Oh no! Please take extra care of yourself. I am feeling a little stuffy today. I hope I'm not getting sick.

Ya... Maybe it's a sign not to travel to Malawi for awhile,!

Just to confirm... When Eva's changes to decision made that means your passport is sent back?
In my experience it means they have printed the COPR a few days earlier (mine was printed 9 October and e-CAS went to DM on 13 October, COPR was mailed on 10 October).

I was so annoyed with Canada in March and April. In Georgia, it's warm and you're outside planting already. In Canada, you're still shoveling snow. Now that is seems to be leveling out as far as weather, I'm not so annoyed.

You really should convince hubby he wants to live in Calgary........ just sayin' ;)

No, they closed the patio for reasons unknown to us. We suspect they were just being lazy. Dinner was okay. We used our gift card from the realtor. It wasn't our type of restaurant and my food wasn't good - it was cooked right and all, just didn't like it. Hubby liked his food. He really liked the birthday pie I made him (pineapple and coconut, it was so gross but he loves it).

We had dinner at his sister's tonight, which is like a three ring circus because she has 3 kids. Ugh! But my nephew is going to give me his graphing calculator to use over the summer..... woo hoo. Must remember how to use a graphing calculator next!

It's time to start petitioning for our Coffee Social subdivision? Looks like I'm going to be the only one NOT landed very soon! :D :D :D: :D ( :'( )
